Description/Analysis
Issue Detail: Located on the UC Davis Medical Center Campus, along the Stockton Boulevard corridor, the Aggie Square project is envisioned as an innovation hub for the Sacramento region, hosting Sacramento start-ups, growing local companies, bringing new companies and jobs to Sacramento and adding vitality to the Stockton Boulevard corridor.
